The woman that got away

Well, I´ve been out on the street since yesterday
Been looking for the woman that got away
A long-legged thing with a red dress on
The kind of woman you can´t leave alone
Listen, if you see her, send her my way
Looking for the woman that got away
The last time I seen her she was looking good
I had a feeling that she understood
She slipped through my fingers in the middle of the night
I´ve gotta find my woman and treat her right
Listen, if you see her, send her my way
Looking for the woman that got away
If I ever get my hands on that woman again
I´m gonna lock my door and keep her in
She won´t do no travelling, won´t follow me ´round
I´m gonna keep my woman and leave town
Been looking for the woman that got away
A long-legged thing with a red dress on
The kind of woman you can´t leave alone
Listen, if you see her, send her my way
Looking for the woman that got away
The last time I seen her she was looking good
I had a feeling that she understood
She slipped through my fingers in the middle of the night
I´ve gotta find my woman and treat her right
Listen, if you see her, send her my way
Looking for the woman that got away
If I ever get my hands on that woman again
I´m gonna lock my door and keep her in
She won´t do no travelling, won´t follow me ´round
I´m gonna keep my woman and leave town
